I just realised I haven't made a WIP thread for this yet! I'm starting this off with a poll.
The Skin Changer mod is a project to use the unofficial v1.3 patch's fake console to allow players to customize the appearance of units (as well as heroes and vehicles in the future) in Star Wars: Battlefront II. I eventually plan to include many different options for all four major factions. A v0.5.5 public beta version is currently available to download (link below).
v0.5.5 Beta:

FAQ:
[spoiler]When is this coming out?
When it's done. I don't know an exact date. I can't predict the future.
Is it online-compatible?
Yes.
Can I use this with <insert mod name here>?
I originally thought it would be compatible with most mods, but I was wrong. After the release of the first beta I received dozens of crash reports. That said, it MAY still work with some mods, but all I can guarantee is that it'll work for the original, un-modded sides.
Can I add my own skins?
I hope to add that feature. No guarantees.
Will you release the assets?
When the mod is finished, i'll release the code for it. But not most of the skins, as they are made by others and can be found elsewhere. (Don't worry, they're all publicly released skins.)[/spoiler]
UPDATE
Hey guys and gals. It's been a while since my last update, so here's a sneak preview at what's coming in the next release!

-Death Troopers (The ones from Rogue One, not the zombie kind)
-Super Battle Droid to B1 Battle Droid
-EA-Battlefront Style Desert Rebels
-Improved Rebel Honor Guards
-Sith Empire skins.
-Improved Old Republic skins.
-Possibly other stuff if I have the time.
Hopefully I can get this out by the end of the year.
